The Holy Family with the Infant Saint John the Baptist

About the Item

Manner of Nicolas Poussin (1594-1665) French The Holy Family with the Infant Saint John the Baptist Oil on canvas: 32 x 27 ½ in. Frame: 37 x 33 in. This fabulous and well executed painting depicts the Holy Family: Child Jesus, the Virgin Mary and the elderly Saint Joseph, with the Infant Saint John the Baptist. Painted by an unknown but highly talented early 19th century Italian artist, and follower of the classical 17th century French Baroque painter Nicholas Poussin (1594-1665). Scenes from the life of the infant Christ were extremely popular in 16 and 17-century Italian painting. The subject of the Holy Family with the Infant Saint John the Baptist can refer to several paintings in public collections around the world: Beccafumi, Correggio, Murillo, Parmigianino, Rosso Fiorentino, and Nicolas Poussin. Gallery notes: This work shows the influence of Poussin’s paintings but does not appear to be a direct copy. Reined on a new support canvas by our gallery. Period gilt frame, restored.

  • Hercules and Omphale, Old Master Painting, Mannerism, Baroque, Mythology, Prague
    Located in Greven, DE
    Hercules and Omphale Oil on panel, 52 x 41 cm According to legend, Hercules had to make atonement and became a slave to the Lydian queen Omphale. When she found out who her slave was, she married him. Falling for his mistress and made effeminate by the luxury of court life, the former hero allowed himself to become the laughing stock of the court. He dressed in women's clothes, spun wool and did other women's work, whereas Omphale wore his lion's skin and carried a wooden club. When the time of punishment was over, the hero realised his delusion and left Omphale. So far, the painting could not be clearly assigned to an artist. Nevertheless, it impresses with its fluid and convincing painting, whose colourfulness and conception are reminiscent of the Prague School around Bartholomäus Spranger. This work follows an engraving and an etching made by Michel Dorigny in 1643 after a design by Simon Vouet. It shows the same scene but the print differs in minor details from the present painting (see e.g. the head of the lion) and the treatment of the faces seems to be painted more detailed and refined. So far there is no painting...
